Irma Spares President Trump’s Caribbean Villa While Demolishing other Chateaus

The Category 5 storm slammed into the French/Dutch Island of St. Martin. President Trump’s 17 million dollar chateau was relatively untouched with the exception of landscaping being a mess and few roof tiles missing said his neighbor and co-owner, Jack Fleishman, of the Villa above President Trump’s.

“How Trump’s sprawling beachside 11-bedroom estate, for sale at a reduced price of $16.9 million, managed to avoid damage when so many other estates nearby were seriously or catastrophically ruined, is still a puzzle, Fleishman told USA TODAY.”

Some of the other homes did not fare as well as President Trump’s! Other celebrity homes did not make it through Irma in such great condition. But homes and property can be replaced but people cannot. Our deepest condolences for those victims who did not make it through Hurricane Irma who ravaged St. Martin.

Most likely his property may have been designed and built to extreme higher building standards to withstand the feircest hurricane and other natural forces that perhaps other structures may not have been built for?
